Study, Travel
Prospects Seen
For Summer
Time is running out for the
summer scholar to make his study-vacation
plans.
To help his answer the big ques-tions
of "what to study," "where
to go" and "how to get there,"
the Institute of International edu-cation
this week released two pub-lications
on summer study.
For the first time, the Institute
has devoted its educational ex-change
magazine--the IIE News
Bulletin—to a comprehensive re-port
of summer study opportuni-ties.
Articles, written by know-ledgeable
authors, cover such in-triguing
summer projects as for-eign
language training in the So-viet
Union, Crossroads Africa, a
seminar in Florentine art in Italy,
and the Berkshire Music center.
In addition to these depth reports,
the IIE News Bulletin includes
two bibliographies—one on coun-tries
and another on summer pro-grams.
The other Institute publication
is a booklet entitled "Summer
Study Abroad," a new up-dated
listing of summer programs which
the Institute publishes annually.
The publication lists scholarship
opportunities for numerous pro-grams
in all fields in 14 European
countries, six Latin American na-tions,
three countries of the Far
and Near East, and various award
projects in Canada.
Anyone interested in either of
these publications should write to
the Institute of International edu-cation,
1 E. 67th St., New York
21, N. Y. The cost of the IIE News
Bulletin is 25 cents. The "Summer
Study Abroad" booklet is free.
treated. And today we see great
strides being made in the psy-chiatric
treatment of criminals.
Criminals are not wrong, they are
`maladjusted,' insecure,' or 'un-stable.'
" The concept of justice
is not eternal but relative to the
needs and demands of the state.
Mr. Healy probed into the pre-sent-
day church relating to it some
methods common to the "Brave
World" of 1984, written by George
Orwell. "Conformity and orthodoxy
have something in common," sug-gested
Mr. Healy. "Julia (referr-ing
to the heroine) said, 'Ortho-doxy
means not thinking.' " Often
our churches produce orthodox,
but non-thinking Christians. We
almost invite on ourselves an evil
which is not to be found in our
orthodox background, and that is
doctrinal conformity without spir-itual
understanding—well dressed
ignorance.
Finally Mr. Anderson reviewed
a book from the pen of a Com-munist
author, Not By Bread A-lone,
by Vladimar Dudentsev. This
book, now banned by the Soviets,
pin-pointed an abiding unrest
within the Iron Curtain. Certain
key statements like "the love is
out of date," the condemnation of
a "raw idea" and Dudentsev's in-terest
in not only the material
joys, but also the joy of a belief—
all these served to reinforce Mr.
Anderson's assertion that the
church ought not disregard the
movements within our spiritual
and political opponent.
Steve Peterson, junior from
Galesburg, Ill., was announced
Tuesday night as the newly elect-ed
president of the student senate.
The announcement was made dur-ing
the intermission of the band
concert by Bruce Leafblad, presi-dent
of the student senate. Other
elected officers are Larry Peter-sen,
vice president; Lois Wester-berg,
recording secretary; Mabel
Moen, corresponding secretary;
and Jim Spicklemier, treasurer.
It was a clean sweep of all of-fices
by the Royal Realist's party
which proposes organizational im-provements
and changes in stu-dent
life. The new amdinistration
seeks to improve college-seminary
relations, increase student repre-sentation,
place a permanent stu-dent
representative on faculty com-mittees,
and others. The aim of
the R.R. regarding student life is
to help create a student that is
dedicated to living a mature Chris-tian
life. This type of person must
be a self-reliant student, a bal-anced
person, and a responsible
citizen.*
There were a total of 573 votes
cast in the student senate elec-tions.
Of these votes 500 were cast
in the college with 73.5 per cent
of the student body participating
in the election. Sixty and eight-tenths
per cent of the seminary
voted in casting 73 votes when
they voted on Tuesday.
*These characteristics were first
noted in President Lundquist's
address in the fall of 1960.
WUS Emphasizes
Student Needs
The problems and needs of Af-rican,
Asian, and Middle Eastern
students were emphasized at the
World University service confer-ence
at Hamline on Saturday,
March 18.
The purpose of the conference
was to give the participants a new
insight into and an appreciation
of WUS. The main aim of WUS
is to unite the efforts of all those
interested, on the various campuses
around the world, in helping to aid
students get an education. Funds
and energies are pooled in a loose-confederative
manner for the bene-fit
of those in emergency situa-tions
relating to student lodging
and living, student health, and
refugee services.
The day-long affair had repre-sentatives
from many colleges and
universities in this vicinity. The
furthest distance traveled was by
the delegates from the University
of Minnesota at Duluth.
Dr. Huntley Dupre, the dean of
Macalester college, keynoted the
luncheon. His address on "The
Growth of the World Student Com-munity"
was the basis for a dis-cussion
that followed.
____The leaders of the various dis-cussion
groups were Mr. Naidu of
the University of Minnesota, Dr.
Armajani of Macalester, Dr. St.
John of Hamline, and Mr. Irving
Stolberg, a regional executive who
represented the head-office in Chi-cago.

Ellis, Healy and Anderson Approach
Contemporary Utopian Literature
by Phil Caldeen
Last Monday night, March 20,
the Theological Discussion group
began a weekly series of lecture-discussions
on contemporary prob-lems
facing the church. The group
heard E. Earle Ellis, assistant pro-fessor
of New Testament, Gerald
Healy, instructor of English, and
Marvin Anderson, instructor of
history, approach contemporary
utopian literature each in his own
distinctive manner.
Among the several issues dis-cussed
was the matter of individ-uality
versus the collectivized so-ciety
and the inherent dangers in
state enforced conformity.
"We must accept or reject,"
said Dr. Ellis, "the current trend
of thought which permits an uni-versal
religiosity, where the Chris-tian
and Buddhist, for example,
may find the basic answer to his
basic needs in a merely different
manner. 'The abiding sin of Chris-tianity,'
says Toynbee, 'is their
exclusiveness.' " In a word, the
church faces the problem of pur-ity.
How much of our Christianity
is cultural ? How much is revealed
by the Holy Spirit ?
A second challenge is the threat
to the dignity of man. "In The
Brave New World the savage was
not punished for his crimes, he was
Crawford Talks Peace--
'Those willing to exterminate
will be exterminated . . . '
The Rev. Curtis Crawford stated in his address to the FORUM on
March 23 that he believes his senses more than his mind. "My senses
tell me peace . . . I feel life inside, not death . . . I see peace, not war
but how can I believe this ?
He continued by saying, "I know that we stand ready . . . to use
the methods of mass extermination and we are paying for it. Fifty-six
per cent of every tax dollar is spent for the arms race."
"Tyranny takes away life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, yet
we are ready to be tyrants and take this from tens of millions of peo-ple—
We stand ready to do this."
Both sides claim that they want disarmament but there is grave
USSR resistence to supervision.
Our goal should be world wide inspected disarmament which will
have to occur step by step with a check on each step. We will have to
stop nuclear testing and production.
Thus far disarmament proposals would only slow down the arms
race. There is plenty of room for the U.S. to act, said Mr. Crawford in
conclusion. The problem is not only disarmament but the problem of
continuing the viability of the human species.

Senate FORUM Idea Praised ;
Let's Support Future Discussions
Recently we have had the privilege to have several noted speakers
on campus to share with us their opinions on controversial matters that
are of importance to the future of mankind.
Numerically it appears that the student body is far more interested
and concerned with things of greater import (coffee shop, T.V., Rook
and other 'epicurean delights' which certainly contribute immensely to
their 'liberal' educations).
At the last FORUM which featured the Rev. Curtis Crawford,
noted theorist and speaker on nuclear disarmament, there were approxi-mately
50 people in attendance. Of these 50, it seemed that five were
visitors to the campus, three were members of the faculty and 42 were
students who were able to tear themselves away from the 'books and
other pleasures' to hear this man.
Of course it isn't so important how many people were present—
or of those people present how many listened, fell asleep, studied, wrote
letters or notes, or day dreamed. If one of those in attendance under-stood
the speaker's thoughts and found himself able to agree or sympa-thize
with his cause or was inspired to think about the subject in dis-cussion
in light of his experiences it was worthwhile. In this case, the
speaker and the FORUM fulfilled a useful purpose.
However, in the future let us try to support the FORUM which is
intellectually stimulating and probably the most effective thing insti-gated
by the senate in the past year. — LEB
Student Gov't Reorganizes
In Two Areas This Spring
by Bruce Leafblad
Senate President
During the next two months you will probably hear a lot of talk
about student government re-organization on campus, and you might be
wondering what it is really all about. In these two short articles I hope
to explain the present thought which is in support of such a move. Let
us survey two particular areas of thought in this writing: constitutional
inadequacies and structural problems.
Regarding the constitution and the by-laws of the senate, I could
sum up the major problem in this fashion—the constitution has long
since seen its day of effectiveness and, in many cases, its relevance to
present needs and demands of student government on our campus.
Briefly may I just point out a few of the more significant problems.
Frist of all, there are a number of committees and councils mentioned
in the by-laws which are not and have not been in existence for a num-ber
of years due to one reason or another. During the course of time
in which these changes in actual structure have been made, the by-laws
of the constitution have remained the same. Second, the definitions of
council responsibilities and memberships are inadequate in some cases
and too detailed in other cases; it is interesting to note that one council
is charged with no responsibilities at all under the by-laws. Third, one
of the five executive cabinet offices is not even mentioned in one of
the important clauses concerning election procedures. These are just a
few instances which should be sufficient enough to illustrate my point.
The other matter is that of structural problems in the present set-up.
First, the present number of councils and the nature of their respon-sibilities
is not comprehensive of all areas of concern for the student.
At present the councils are active in the athletic, cultural, social, and
religious areas of student life, but the very core of our college exper-ience
has been ignored—that being the academic, intellectual, and edu-cational
aspect of college life. No provision is made for further intellec-tual
interest and growth outside of the classroom; this year THE
FORUM series has been an outreach in this area, the responsibility for
which was given to the executive cabinet of the senate since there is
not a council to whom such responsibilities could be charged. Also, there
is no provision for course and curriculum evaluation on the student
level; the present set-up makes no attempt to determine whether or not
we as students are getting the type of educational experience we ought
to have. The second point is this : the present structure of the senate is
not adequate in student representation. There are only fourteen voting
members on the senate representing over 800 students; this amounts to
one and three-fourths per cent of the student body. The population of
the school has been growing rapidly, but the membership of the senate
has remained the same; thus, the ratio of student representation has
been rapidly decreasing and will continue to do so until such time as a
change is made in the present structure. My last point is closely related
to the second. By maintaining such a small voting membership on the
senate we do a grave injustice to our students by only allowing a very
small number of people to have the opportunity to develop their leader-ship
abilities in the heart of student government. When election time
comes around, we find that it is not easy to find even two people to
run for each of the senate offices—much less are we able to find
enough candidates who have had sufficient experience on the senate to
be truly qualified for such a position.
Of necessity these points have been very briefly presented, but I
trust that they shall suffice to point up the problems. In the next
issue I shall discuss the matter of: college-seminary relations in student
government.
Non-conformity, originality and campus activities. For as John
individuality seem to be hackneyed Stuart Mill said, "The mere exam-words
in contemporary vocabu- ple of non-conformity is itself a
lary. Their frequent use indicates, service. Precisely because the con-however,

Students Support Peace Corps
Editor's Note:
In light of the current interest in the Youth Peace Corps, we
include this article with opinions pro and con of this operation
which we feel could be an answer to our foreign relations with
under-developed nations. — LEB
Reacting quickly to President Kennedy's executive order establish-ing
a temporary Youth Peace Corps, several U.S. college and student
organizations have come forward with their support, doubts and offers
of services.
Last week Columbia university's student board unanimously approv-ed
sending a letter to Columbia's President Grayson Kirk urging him to
"offer Columbia as a regional training center for future Peace Corps
personnel."
Citing President Kennedy's message to Congress on March 1 pro-posing
the nation's colleges and universities as personnel training
grounds for the Peace Corps, the board called upon the university ad-minsitration
to "bring Columbia's name back into the foreground of
national education by becoming the first university to offer such a pro-gram
in cooperation with the Federal Government."
At Phillips university in Enid, Oklahoma, the Student Senate wrote
to all Oklahoma congressmen in Washington in support of the Peace
Corps, and the student governments of both the University of Oklahoma
and the University of Redlands, California, have gone on record as sup-porting
the program.
The Minnesota Daily reported that foreign students on that campus
gave general approval to the Peace Corps, but in an interview with the
Michigan Daily, five Chilean students touring the U.S. on a U.S. Na-tional
Student association program expressed a doubt about the Corps'
effectiveness. They pointed out that the weight of the new Latin Ameri-can
policy in the U.S. cannot be borne by a peace corps, but a basic
change must be made in the economic relationship between the U.S. and
Chile.
One Chilean remarked that most of the natural resources in the
Latin American countries are being removed by United States industries.
"If a portion of these resources is sent back as charity, the people will
not appreciate it."
For one thing, the Chileans felt the Peace Corps would be more
successful if it were part of the United Nations instead of the State
department. Then, they added, the government (in Chile) through which
the Peace Corps would deal is quite conservative and Corps workers
might be channeled into work which would maintain the status quo, not
bring progress.
The education provided to Americans by the Peace Corps program
seemed worth-while to the Chileans and they were glad that Americans
would have a chance to find out about Chilean problems, but they feared
that U.S. Corps workers might have a hard time understanding the
problems since our terms of reference are so different.
The thought of what happened at the resur-rection
of our Savior should constantly be on our
minds and in our hearts as a powerful life-giving
reality, for it is in His death and subsequent resur-rection
that we rest all that we believe. In the
resurrection Jesus gained victory over death by the
life that was given to Him by His Father, a life
of eternal quality and power to forever put sin
and its consequence, death, out of existence for the
Christian. We as Christians rest our sense of
eternity on this fact of eternal significance, that
death is swallowed up in victory unto life because
of the life-giving death and resurrection of our
Lord.
Paul, in Philippians 3:10 has one thought in
mind, that is, "to know Him, and the power of His
resurrection." What power could the resurrection
have to Paul in his supreme desire to know Christ.
What part does the power of the resurrection effect
in our life, considering the two thousand years
lapse of time between that experience and our pre-sent
experience.
For the Christian, resurrection life is always
contemporary. The "power of the resurrection," or
only a deflated ego. Students exist
today in a maze of persuasion.
Erich Fromm writes, "Since there
is still a need to feel differences,
the initials on the handbag or the
sweater, the belonging to the
Democratic as against the Repub-lican
party, to the Elks instead of
the Shriners become the expres-sion
of individual differences. The
advertising slogan 'it is different'
shows up this pathetic need for
difference, when in reality there
is hardly any left."
At Bethel this issue has repeat-edly
been dealt with in the form
of petty rebellion over social habits
and dress. The hollow gasp for
these forms of rebellion and free-dom
of religion denotes individual-ism
about as much as beards, etc.
It takes courage to search one-self
and thus find an expression
for originality. Each individual
tends to be swallowed by conven-tion
and tradition. Often one can-not
explain one's yes' and no's and
pointing to a college, a church,
parents, or friends simply shrugs
and continues to drift.
It is time for students to take
a good look at themselves and to
ask "why?" sometimes instead of
"what," "how much," or "when."
If one cannot elevate personal
gripes to the level of principles
and non-conformity above beards,
education will be worthless; for an
education implies that a person
has the ability to make intelligent
value judgments. — LEB
Resurrection Should be a Constant Thought.
Death Swallowed up in Victory Because of It
just the thought of a resurrection, implies a death.
We can only participate in Christ's resurrection
and its power if we have first died with Him to our
sin in salvation, His death to sin effecting our death
to sin. Looking back on the resurrection historically
is only one way of viewing it. The real way to look
on the resurrection, or the way that is real and
living to us, is to experience the death and resur-rection
of Christ throughout all the contemporary
moments of our life. If we have been crucified with
Christ, we shall also be raised with Him. If we
die to our sins daily, we shall also have resurrection
victory over sins daily.
The power of the resurrection is the power of
the holy life, a life of constantly putting to death
of sin. Paul states this process of life in death when
he says: "for if you live according to the flesh you
will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the
deeds of the body you will live (Romans 8:13)."
Resurrection lfie is this life out of death, as Jesus
gained life for us by His death. The Spirit of the
resurrection is life and victory over sin for us daily,
if we but live in the Spirit's purifying presence, sin
dying under its purging; the pure in heart knowing
and beholding their Lord. — Jim Nelson

Club's Subversive Activities To Be Assisted By Dean Dahlquist
by CLARION Committee to
investigate competition
Few people are aware of the
underground activities of a certain
group on campus. These people
are quite ordniary and at first
glance you might take them for
ordinary students. But, beware,
for these people are subversive.
Furthermore, they belong to that
dread organization called "The
Music club." We thought you might
be surprised at learning this. And
to top off this startling fact—they
put out propaganda! The first is-sue
came out last week, deceiving-ly
titled "Overtones," and con-tained
information as to the club's
activities.
Albatross Issued
SWARTHMORE, PENN.
—(UPS)—The second issue of
Albatross, an inter-collegiate
magazine of letters founded by
students at Swarthmore college,
was released last week.
The recent issues feature a
debate on the House Committee
on Un-American Activities, and
a plan for Food for Peace by
an Amherst undergraduate, in-cluding
his letter addressed to
Mao Tse-Tung on sending Am-erican
surplus foods to the gov-ernment
of Mainland China.
The editors encourage inter-ested
students to submit letters
to the Albatross, Swarthmore
college, Swarthmore, Penn. Sub-scriptions
are $1.75 for a six
issue year. The magazine will
appear monthly until June.
We of the CLARION staff feel
that in order to inform the stu-dent
body of the activities o f this
group we must publish this warn-ing
to you. These people are ex-tremely
dangerous. We cannot
stress this enough. To become bet-ter
acquainted with this problem,
we have listed simple rules to fol-low
in dealing with the problem:
1). Whenever approached by one
of the music club members, be kind
to them.
2). To better equip ourselves to
combat them, attend their monthly
meetings in order to ferret out
their faults, shortcomings, and
boo-boos.
3). Do not take rash measures
against them for they are a strong
and influential party.
4). Be kind to their leader, C.
Howard Smith, for he must re-main
strong to cope with the in-surgents
within the group's ranks.
5). Lastly, we urge you to read
their propaganda, the "Overtones"
in order to see what a well-or-ganized
machine you are up a-gainst.
This paper comes out
monthly and can be obtained by
placing your name in box 625 with
your name and box number. If you
feel inclined to join their ranks,
we cannot stop you, but we will
feel deeply moved because we
know that you are out to acquaint
yourselves with music and its
ramifications. We know that you
will be welcomed royally by them
and once gone, you will never be
reclaimed by we on the outside
looking in. eamftad Zetod oteep

HUAC Rights,
Not Tactics,
Upheld By Court
(UPS)—A sharply-split Sup-reme
Court last week reaffirmed
the right of the House Committee
on Un-American activities, HUAC,
to investigate communism. But the
committee's tactics were assailed
sharply by the dissenting justices.
By a 5-4 vote, the court upheld
contempt of Congress convictions
against Frank Wilkinson of Los
Angeles and Carl Braden of Ken-tucky
who refused to answer ques-tions
put to them by a subcom-mittee
in Atlanta in 1958.
Justice Hugo L. Black, who led
the dissenters with a vigorous
criticism of the committee's prac-tices,
is also the man whose words
inspired the formation of organi-zation
of college students waging
a battle against what it calls the
"Communist-led" drive to abolish
the HUAC. The Student's Com-mittee
for Congressional autonomy
(SCCA), started by two North-western
students, uses as its motto
a statement made by Justice Black
in 1936: "There is no power on
earth that can tear away the veil
behind which powerful and auda-cious
and unscrupulous groups
operate, save the sovereign legis-lative
power armed with the right
of subpoena and search."

Grasston, Minn. ace collected 97
field goals and 81 free throws in
out-distancing runner-up Stan Am-undsen
of Northwestern (Minn.)
who finished with 214 points in
10 games for a 21.4 average. Turn-quist's
achievement is further em-phasized
by the fact that only
one other conference eager, Bob
Kruel of Milton, managed to col-lect
over 200 points. Kruel finished
with 202 points in 12 games for a

his calm attitude gave the 6'3"

on the court his accomplish-ments
cannot be denied. All who
witnessed him in action will tes-tify
to his defensive skill and re-bounding
ability in addition to his
deadly jump shot and other offen-sive

was an outstanding ability to
shoot free throws. Turnquist con-verted

Healy's squad in the conference
race must not be overlooked in
spite of the disappointment of the
failure to share in a slice of the
crown. The Royal's 10-2 record is
certainly impressive, particularly
when considered in light of the
fact that the Royals finished three
full games in front of third place
Milton.
It is interesting to note that
Healy's club won three of four
games with the other top clubs.
The Royals split with champion
Northland, losing 79-57 and hand-ing
the champs their only confer-ence
defeat by a score of 60-51.
Bethel demolished Milton in their
two meetings by scores of 75-49
and 65-49.
Defense and team balance was
the key to Northland's champion-ship
squad. The Lumberjack's stop-ped
opponents with a stingy 58.9
points per game while averaging a
whopping 78.2, an average victory
margin of 19.3. Bethel limited op-ponents
to 62 points per contest
to finish second in this depart-ment.
The Royal offense gener-ated
an average of 74.6 points
per game to finish third behind
Northwestern (Minn.) and North-land.
The champion Lumberjacks
showed fine team balance with
four players in the top 20 scor-ers.
Tom Frizzell led the Wiscon-sinites
with 174 points. The Royals
had two players in the top 20 in
addition to Turnquist. John Peter-son
accumulated 135 points in 12
games while Jim Eckblad totaled
127, also in 12 contests.

Royalettes
End Excellent
Season
by Gordon Bear
The Royalettes, under the coach-ing
of John Holmberg and Mrs.
Owen Halleen, accomplished feats
that would cause any coach to
stand and take notice. Stand and
take notice is just what the Bethel
fans did as the girls put on a top
performance game after game
earning for the season a win one
and loss one record.
Among the schools who came out
on the short end of the score col-umn
were the Pillsbury, Swedish
hospital, Northwestern and St.
Paul Bible college. Defeat for the
Royalettes came in a close game
with the Pillsbury lassies ending
with the opponents holding a slim
two point lead.
Due to the floor play set up for
women's basketball, a winning
squad has to be strong both on
defense and offense. Bethel had
this combination and more. Out-standing
on the shouting end of
the floor were Carol Peterson and
Nancy Gustafson. Along with the
precision teamwork on the floor,
the Royalettes enjoyed spirited
support from the cheering galler-ies.
Receiving honors at the victory
banquet were the following Roy-alettes:
Nancy Gustafson — most
points for the season (191) and
best free throw percentage (33 of
50), Carol Peterson—highest point
average per game (22 points), Lori
Geijer—most personal fouls, Ar-lene
Frieberg — least personal
fouls, and Eunice Murra rewarded
as team morale booster.
In summing up these accomp-lishments,
my advice to the Royal-ettes
would be—"Watch out, scout
Gerald Healy is on the look-out
these days."

Study, Travel
Prospects Seen
For Summer
Time is running out for the
summer scholar to make his study-vacation
plans.
To help his answer the big ques-tions
of "what to study," "where
to go" and "how to get there,"
the Institute of International edu-cation
this week released two pub-lications
on summer study.
For the first time, the Institute
has devoted its educational ex-change
magazine--the IIE News
Bulletin—to a comprehensive re-port
of summer study opportuni-ties.
Articles, written by know-ledgeable
authors, cover such in-triguing
summer projects as for-eign
language training in the So-viet
Union, Crossroads Africa, a
seminar in Florentine art in Italy,
and the Berkshire Music center.
In addition to these depth reports,
the IIE News Bulletin includes
two bibliographies—one on coun-tries
and another on summer pro-grams.
The other Institute publication
is a booklet entitled "Summer
Study Abroad," a new up-dated
listing of summer programs which
the Institute publishes annually.
The publication lists scholarship
opportunities for numerous pro-grams
in all fields in 14 European
countries, six Latin American na-tions,
three countries of the Far
and Near East, and various award
projects in Canada.
Anyone interested in either of
these publications should write to
the Institute of International edu-cation,
1 E. 67th St., New York
21, N. Y. The cost of the IIE News
Bulletin is 25 cents. The "Summer
Study Abroad" booklet is free.
treated. And today we see great
strides being made in the psy-chiatric
treatment of criminals.
Criminals are not wrong, they are
`maladjusted,' insecure,' or 'un-stable.'
" The concept of justice
is not eternal but relative to the
needs and demands of the state.
Mr. Healy probed into the pre-sent-
day church relating to it some
methods common to the "Brave
World" of 1984, written by George
Orwell. "Conformity and orthodoxy
have something in common," sug-gested
Mr. Healy. "Julia (referr-ing
to the heroine) said, 'Ortho-doxy
means not thinking.' " Often
our churches produce orthodox,
but non-thinking Christians. We
almost invite on ourselves an evil
which is not to be found in our
orthodox background, and that is
doctrinal conformity without spir-itual
understanding—well dressed
ignorance.
Finally Mr. Anderson reviewed
a book from the pen of a Com-munist
author, Not By Bread A-lone,
by Vladimar Dudentsev. This
book, now banned by the Soviets,
pin-pointed an abiding unrest
within the Iron Curtain. Certain
key statements like "the love is
out of date," the condemnation of
a "raw idea" and Dudentsev's in-terest
in not only the material
joys, but also the joy of a belief—
all these served to reinforce Mr.
Anderson's assertion that the
church ought not disregard the
movements within our spiritual
and political opponent.
Steve Peterson, junior from
Galesburg, Ill., was announced
Tuesday night as the newly elect-ed
president of the student senate.
The announcement was made dur-ing
the intermission of the band
concert by Bruce Leafblad, presi-dent
of the student senate. Other
elected officers are Larry Peter-sen,
vice president; Lois Wester-berg,
recording secretary; Mabel
Moen, corresponding secretary;
and Jim Spicklemier, treasurer.
It was a clean sweep of all of-fices
by the Royal Realist's party
which proposes organizational im-provements
and changes in stu-dent
life. The new amdinistration
seeks to improve college-seminary
relations, increase student repre-sentation,
place a permanent stu-dent
representative on faculty com-mittees,
and others. The aim of
the R.R. regarding student life is
to help create a student that is
dedicated to living a mature Chris-tian
life. This type of person must
be a self-reliant student, a bal-anced
person, and a responsible
citizen.*
There were a total of 573 votes
cast in the student senate elec-tions.
Of these votes 500 were cast
in the college with 73.5 per cent
of the student body participating
in the election. Sixty and eight-tenths
per cent of the seminary
voted in casting 73 votes when
they voted on Tuesday.
*These characteristics were first
noted in President Lundquist's
address in the fall of 1960.
WUS Emphasizes
Student Needs
The problems and needs of Af-rican,
Asian, and Middle Eastern
students were emphasized at the
World University service confer-ence
at Hamline on Saturday,
March 18.
The purpose of the conference
was to give the participants a new
insight into and an appreciation
of WUS. The main aim of WUS
is to unite the efforts of all those
interested, on the various campuses
around the world, in helping to aid
students get an education. Funds
and energies are pooled in a loose-confederative
manner for the bene-fit
of those in emergency situa-tions
relating to student lodging
and living, student health, and
refugee services.
The day-long affair had repre-sentatives
from many colleges and
universities in this vicinity. The
furthest distance traveled was by
the delegates from the University
of Minnesota at Duluth.
Dr. Huntley Dupre, the dean of
Macalester college, keynoted the
luncheon. His address on "The
Growth of the World Student Com-munity"
was the basis for a dis-cussion
that followed.
____The leaders of the various dis-cussion
groups were Mr. Naidu of
the University of Minnesota, Dr.
Armajani of Macalester, Dr. St.
John of Hamline, and Mr. Irving
Stolberg, a regional executive who
represented the head-office in Chi-cago.

Ellis, Healy and Anderson Approach
Contemporary Utopian Literature
by Phil Caldeen
Last Monday night, March 20,
the Theological Discussion group
began a weekly series of lecture-discussions
on contemporary prob-lems
facing the church. The group
heard E. Earle Ellis, assistant pro-fessor
of New Testament, Gerald
Healy, instructor of English, and
Marvin Anderson, instructor of
history, approach contemporary
utopian literature each in his own
distinctive manner.
Among the several issues dis-cussed
was the matter of individ-uality
versus the collectivized so-ciety
and the inherent dangers in
state enforced conformity.
"We must accept or reject,"
said Dr. Ellis, "the current trend
of thought which permits an uni-versal
religiosity, where the Chris-tian
and Buddhist, for example,
may find the basic answer to his
basic needs in a merely different
manner. 'The abiding sin of Chris-tianity,'
says Toynbee, 'is their
exclusiveness.' " In a word, the
church faces the problem of pur-ity.
How much of our Christianity
is cultural ? How much is revealed
by the Holy Spirit ?
A second challenge is the threat
to the dignity of man. "In The
Brave New World the savage was
not punished for his crimes, he was
Crawford Talks Peace--
'Those willing to exterminate
will be exterminated . . . '
The Rev. Curtis Crawford stated in his address to the FORUM on
March 23 that he believes his senses more than his mind. "My senses
tell me peace . . . I feel life inside, not death . . . I see peace, not war
but how can I believe this ?
He continued by saying, "I know that we stand ready . . . to use
the methods of mass extermination and we are paying for it. Fifty-six
per cent of every tax dollar is spent for the arms race."
"Tyranny takes away life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, yet
we are ready to be tyrants and take this from tens of millions of peo-ple—
We stand ready to do this."
Both sides claim that they want disarmament but there is grave
USSR resistence to supervision.
Our goal should be world wide inspected disarmament which will
have to occur step by step with a check on each step. We will have to
stop nuclear testing and production.
Thus far disarmament proposals would only slow down the arms
race. There is plenty of room for the U.S. to act, said Mr. Crawford in
conclusion. The problem is not only disarmament but the problem of
continuing the viability of the human species.

Senate FORUM Idea Praised ;
Let's Support Future Discussions
Recently we have had the privilege to have several noted speakers
on campus to share with us their opinions on controversial matters that
are of importance to the future of mankind.
Numerically it appears that the student body is far more interested
and concerned with things of greater import (coffee shop, T.V., Rook
and other 'epicurean delights' which certainly contribute immensely to
their 'liberal' educations).
At the last FORUM which featured the Rev. Curtis Crawford,
noted theorist and speaker on nuclear disarmament, there were approxi-mately
50 people in attendance. Of these 50, it seemed that five were
visitors to the campus, three were members of the faculty and 42 were
students who were able to tear themselves away from the 'books and
other pleasures' to hear this man.
Of course it isn't so important how many people were present—
or of those people present how many listened, fell asleep, studied, wrote
letters or notes, or day dreamed. If one of those in attendance under-stood
the speaker's thoughts and found himself able to agree or sympa-thize
with his cause or was inspired to think about the subject in dis-cussion
in light of his experiences it was worthwhile. In this case, the
speaker and the FORUM fulfilled a useful purpose.
However, in the future let us try to support the FORUM which is
intellectually stimulating and probably the most effective thing insti-gated
by the senate in the past year. — LEB
Student Gov't Reorganizes
In Two Areas This Spring
by Bruce Leafblad
Senate President
During the next two months you will probably hear a lot of talk
about student government re-organization on campus, and you might be
wondering what it is really all about. In these two short articles I hope
to explain the present thought which is in support of such a move. Let
us survey two particular areas of thought in this writing: constitutional
inadequacies and structural problems.
Regarding the constitution and the by-laws of the senate, I could
sum up the major problem in this fashion—the constitution has long
since seen its day of effectiveness and, in many cases, its relevance to
present needs and demands of student government on our campus.
Briefly may I just point out a few of the more significant problems.
Frist of all, there are a number of committees and councils mentioned
in the by-laws which are not and have not been in existence for a num-ber
of years due to one reason or another. During the course of time
in which these changes in actual structure have been made, the by-laws
of the constitution have remained the same. Second, the definitions of
council responsibilities and memberships are inadequate in some cases
and too detailed in other cases; it is interesting to note that one council
is charged with no responsibilities at all under the by-laws. Third, one
of the five executive cabinet offices is not even mentioned in one of
the important clauses concerning election procedures. These are just a
few instances which should be sufficient enough to illustrate my point.
The other matter is that of structural problems in the present set-up.
First, the present number of councils and the nature of their respon-sibilities
is not comprehensive of all areas of concern for the student.
At present the councils are active in the athletic, cultural, social, and
religious areas of student life, but the very core of our college exper-ience
has been ignored—that being the academic, intellectual, and edu-cational
aspect of college life. No provision is made for further intellec-tual
interest and growth outside of the classroom; this year THE
FORUM series has been an outreach in this area, the responsibility for
which was given to the executive cabinet of the senate since there is
not a council to whom such responsibilities could be charged. Also, there
is no provision for course and curriculum evaluation on the student
level; the present set-up makes no attempt to determine whether or not
we as students are getting the type of educational experience we ought
to have. The second point is this : the present structure of the senate is
not adequate in student representation. There are only fourteen voting
members on the senate representing over 800 students; this amounts to
one and three-fourths per cent of the student body. The population of
the school has been growing rapidly, but the membership of the senate
has remained the same; thus, the ratio of student representation has
been rapidly decreasing and will continue to do so until such time as a
change is made in the present structure. My last point is closely related
to the second. By maintaining such a small voting membership on the
senate we do a grave injustice to our students by only allowing a very
small number of people to have the opportunity to develop their leader-ship
abilities in the heart of student government. When election time
comes around, we find that it is not easy to find even two people to
run for each of the senate offices—much less are we able to find
enough candidates who have had sufficient experience on the senate to
be truly qualified for such a position.
Of necessity these points have been very briefly presented, but I
trust that they shall suffice to point up the problems. In the next
issue I shall discuss the matter of: college-seminary relations in student
government.
Non-conformity, originality and campus activities. For as John
individuality seem to be hackneyed Stuart Mill said, "The mere exam-words
in contemporary vocabu- ple of non-conformity is itself a
lary. Their frequent use indicates, service. Precisely because the con-however,

Students Support Peace Corps
Editor's Note:
In light of the current interest in the Youth Peace Corps, we
include this article with opinions pro and con of this operation
which we feel could be an answer to our foreign relations with
under-developed nations. — LEB
Reacting quickly to President Kennedy's executive order establish-ing
a temporary Youth Peace Corps, several U.S. college and student
organizations have come forward with their support, doubts and offers
of services.
Last week Columbia university's student board unanimously approv-ed
sending a letter to Columbia's President Grayson Kirk urging him to
"offer Columbia as a regional training center for future Peace Corps
personnel."
Citing President Kennedy's message to Congress on March 1 pro-posing
the nation's colleges and universities as personnel training
grounds for the Peace Corps, the board called upon the university ad-minsitration
to "bring Columbia's name back into the foreground of
national education by becoming the first university to offer such a pro-gram
in cooperation with the Federal Government."
At Phillips university in Enid, Oklahoma, the Student Senate wrote
to all Oklahoma congressmen in Washington in support of the Peace
Corps, and the student governments of both the University of Oklahoma
and the University of Redlands, California, have gone on record as sup-porting
the program.
The Minnesota Daily reported that foreign students on that campus
gave general approval to the Peace Corps, but in an interview with the
Michigan Daily, five Chilean students touring the U.S. on a U.S. Na-tional
Student association program expressed a doubt about the Corps'
effectiveness. They pointed out that the weight of the new Latin Ameri-can
policy in the U.S. cannot be borne by a peace corps, but a basic
change must be made in the economic relationship between the U.S. and
Chile.
One Chilean remarked that most of the natural resources in the
Latin American countries are being removed by United States industries.
"If a portion of these resources is sent back as charity, the people will
not appreciate it."
For one thing, the Chileans felt the Peace Corps would be more
successful if it were part of the United Nations instead of the State
department. Then, they added, the government (in Chile) through which
the Peace Corps would deal is quite conservative and Corps workers
might be channeled into work which would maintain the status quo, not
bring progress.
The education provided to Americans by the Peace Corps program
seemed worth-while to the Chileans and they were glad that Americans
would have a chance to find out about Chilean problems, but they feared
that U.S. Corps workers might have a hard time understanding the
problems since our terms of reference are so different.
The thought of what happened at the resur-rection
of our Savior should constantly be on our
minds and in our hearts as a powerful life-giving
reality, for it is in His death and subsequent resur-rection
that we rest all that we believe. In the
resurrection Jesus gained victory over death by the
life that was given to Him by His Father, a life
of eternal quality and power to forever put sin
and its consequence, death, out of existence for the
Christian. We as Christians rest our sense of
eternity on this fact of eternal significance, that
death is swallowed up in victory unto life because
of the life-giving death and resurrection of our
Lord.
Paul, in Philippians 3:10 has one thought in
mind, that is, "to know Him, and the power of His
resurrection." What power could the resurrection
have to Paul in his supreme desire to know Christ.
What part does the power of the resurrection effect
in our life, considering the two thousand years
lapse of time between that experience and our pre-sent
experience.
For the Christian, resurrection life is always
contemporary. The "power of the resurrection," or
only a deflated ego. Students exist
today in a maze of persuasion.
Erich Fromm writes, "Since there
is still a need to feel differences,
the initials on the handbag or the
sweater, the belonging to the
Democratic as against the Repub-lican
party, to the Elks instead of
the Shriners become the expres-sion
of individual differences. The
advertising slogan 'it is different'
shows up this pathetic need for
difference, when in reality there
is hardly any left."
At Bethel this issue has repeat-edly
been dealt with in the form
of petty rebellion over social habits
and dress. The hollow gasp for
these forms of rebellion and free-dom
of religion denotes individual-ism
about as much as beards, etc.
It takes courage to search one-self
and thus find an expression
for originality. Each individual
tends to be swallowed by conven-tion
and tradition. Often one can-not
explain one's yes' and no's and
pointing to a college, a church,
parents, or friends simply shrugs
and continues to drift.
It is time for students to take
a good look at themselves and to
ask "why?" sometimes instead of
"what," "how much," or "when."
If one cannot elevate personal
gripes to the level of principles
and non-conformity above beards,
education will be worthless; for an
education implies that a person
has the ability to make intelligent
value judgments. — LEB
Resurrection Should be a Constant Thought.
Death Swallowed up in Victory Because of It
just the thought of a resurrection, implies a death.
We can only participate in Christ's resurrection
and its power if we have first died with Him to our
sin in salvation, His death to sin effecting our death
to sin. Looking back on the resurrection historically
is only one way of viewing it. The real way to look
on the resurrection, or the way that is real and
living to us, is to experience the death and resur-rection
of Christ throughout all the contemporary
moments of our life. If we have been crucified with
Christ, we shall also be raised with Him. If we
die to our sins daily, we shall also have resurrection
victory over sins daily.
The power of the resurrection is the power of
the holy life, a life of constantly putting to death
of sin. Paul states this process of life in death when
he says: "for if you live according to the flesh you
will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the
deeds of the body you will live (Romans 8:13)."
Resurrection lfie is this life out of death, as Jesus
gained life for us by His death. The Spirit of the
resurrection is life and victory over sin for us daily,
if we but live in the Spirit's purifying presence, sin
dying under its purging; the pure in heart knowing
and beholding their Lord. — Jim Nelson

Club's Subversive Activities To Be Assisted By Dean Dahlquist
by CLARION Committee to
investigate competition
Few people are aware of the
underground activities of a certain
group on campus. These people
are quite ordniary and at first
glance you might take them for
ordinary students. But, beware,
for these people are subversive.
Furthermore, they belong to that
dread organization called "The
Music club." We thought you might
be surprised at learning this. And
to top off this startling fact—they
put out propaganda! The first is-sue
came out last week, deceiving-ly
titled "Overtones," and con-tained
information as to the club's
activities.
Albatross Issued
SWARTHMORE, PENN.
—(UPS)—The second issue of
Albatross, an inter-collegiate
magazine of letters founded by
students at Swarthmore college,
was released last week.
The recent issues feature a
debate on the House Committee
on Un-American Activities, and
a plan for Food for Peace by
an Amherst undergraduate, in-cluding
his letter addressed to
Mao Tse-Tung on sending Am-erican
surplus foods to the gov-ernment
of Mainland China.
The editors encourage inter-ested
students to submit letters
to the Albatross, Swarthmore
college, Swarthmore, Penn. Sub-scriptions
are $1.75 for a six
issue year. The magazine will
appear monthly until June.
We of the CLARION staff feel
that in order to inform the stu-dent
body of the activities o f this
group we must publish this warn-ing
to you. These people are ex-tremely
dangerous. We cannot
stress this enough. To become bet-ter
acquainted with this problem,
we have listed simple rules to fol-low
in dealing with the problem:
1). Whenever approached by one
of the music club members, be kind
to them.
2). To better equip ourselves to
combat them, attend their monthly
meetings in order to ferret out
their faults, shortcomings, and
boo-boos.
3). Do not take rash measures
against them for they are a strong
and influential party.
4). Be kind to their leader, C.
Howard Smith, for he must re-main
strong to cope with the in-surgents
within the group's ranks.
5). Lastly, we urge you to read
their propaganda, the "Overtones"
in order to see what a well-or-ganized
machine you are up a-gainst.
This paper comes out
monthly and can be obtained by
placing your name in box 625 with
your name and box number. If you
feel inclined to join their ranks,
we cannot stop you, but we will
feel deeply moved because we
know that you are out to acquaint
yourselves with music and its
ramifications. We know that you
will be welcomed royally by them
and once gone, you will never be
reclaimed by we on the outside
looking in. eamftad Zetod oteep

HUAC Rights,
Not Tactics,
Upheld By Court
(UPS)—A sharply-split Sup-reme
Court last week reaffirmed
the right of the House Committee
on Un-American activities, HUAC,
to investigate communism. But the
committee's tactics were assailed
sharply by the dissenting justices.
By a 5-4 vote, the court upheld
contempt of Congress convictions
against Frank Wilkinson of Los
Angeles and Carl Braden of Ken-tucky
who refused to answer ques-tions
put to them by a subcom-mittee
in Atlanta in 1958.
Justice Hugo L. Black, who led
the dissenters with a vigorous
criticism of the committee's prac-tices,
is also the man whose words
inspired the formation of organi-zation
of college students waging
a battle against what it calls the
"Communist-led" drive to abolish
the HUAC. The Student's Com-mittee
for Congressional autonomy
(SCCA), started by two North-western
students, uses as its motto
a statement made by Justice Black
in 1936: "There is no power on
earth that can tear away the veil
behind which powerful and auda-cious
and unscrupulous groups
operate, save the sovereign legis-lative
power armed with the right
of subpoena and search."

point per contest average. The
Grasston, Minn. ace collected 97
field goals and 81 free throws in
out-distancing runner-up Stan Am-undsen
of Northwestern (Minn.)
who finished with 214 points in
10 games for a 21.4 average. Turn-quist's
achievement is further em-phasized
by the fact that only
one other conference eager, Bob
Kruel of Milton, managed to col-lect
over 200 points. Kruel finished
with 202 points in 12 games for a
16.8 average.
Jerry Healy's squad will cer-tainly
miss Turnquist next year.
The cool and collected forward was
certainly instrumental in leading
the Royals to a 10-2 conference
record, a scant game off the pace
of champion Northland. Although
his calm attitude gave the 6'3"
sharpshooter a deceptive appear-ance
on the court his accomplish-ments
cannot be denied. All who
witnessed him in action will tes-tify
to his defensive skill and re-bounding
ability in addition to his
deadly jump shot and other offen-sive
assets, not the least of which
was an outstanding ability to
shoot free throws. Turnquist con-verted
approximately 80 percent
of his charity attempts for the
season.
The accomplishments of Coach
Healy's squad in the conference
race must not be overlooked in
spite of the disappointment of the
failure to share in a slice of the
crown. The Royal's 10-2 record is
certainly impressive, particularly
when considered in light of the
fact that the Royals finished three
full games in front of third place
Milton.
It is interesting to note that
Healy's club won three of four
games with the other top clubs.
The Royals split with champion
Northland, losing 79-57 and hand-ing
the champs their only confer-ence
defeat by a score of 60-51.
Bethel demolished Milton in their
two meetings by scores of 75-49
and 65-49.
Defense and team balance was
the key to Northland's champion-ship
squad. The Lumberjack's stop-ped
opponents with a stingy 58.9
points per game while averaging a
whopping 78.2, an average victory
margin of 19.3. Bethel limited op-ponents
to 62 points per contest
to finish second in this depart-ment.
The Royal offense gener-ated
an average of 74.6 points
per game to finish third behind
Northwestern (Minn.) and North-land.
The champion Lumberjacks
showed fine team balance with
four players in the top 20 scor-ers.
Tom Frizzell led the Wiscon-sinites
with 174 points. The Royals
had two players in the top 20 in
addition to Turnquist. John Peter-son
accumulated 135 points in 12
games while Jim Eckblad totaled
127, also in 12 contests.

Royalettes
End Excellent
Season
by Gordon Bear
The Royalettes, under the coach-ing
of John Holmberg and Mrs.
Owen Halleen, accomplished feats
that would cause any coach to
stand and take notice. Stand and
take notice is just what the Bethel
fans did as the girls put on a top
performance game after game
earning for the season a win one
and loss one record.
Among the schools who came out
on the short end of the score col-umn
were the Pillsbury, Swedish
hospital, Northwestern and St.
Paul Bible college. Defeat for the
Royalettes came in a close game
with the Pillsbury lassies ending
with the opponents holding a slim
two point lead.
Due to the floor play set up for
women's basketball, a winning
squad has to be strong both on
defense and offense. Bethel had
this combination and more. Out-standing
on the shouting end of
the floor were Carol Peterson and
Nancy Gustafson. Along with the
precision teamwork on the floor,
the Royalettes enjoyed spirited
support from the cheering galler-ies.
Receiving honors at the victory
banquet were the following Roy-alettes:
Nancy Gustafson — most
points for the season (191) and
best free throw percentage (33 of
50), Carol Peterson—highest point
average per game (22 points), Lori
Geijer—most personal fouls, Ar-lene
Frieberg — least personal
fouls, and Eunice Murra rewarded
as team morale booster.
In summing up these accomp-lishments,
my advice to the Royal-ettes
would be—"Watch out, scout
Gerald Healy is on the look-out
these days."

Coach Thompson stated that
most of the team's strength will
lie in the distance runs, the quar-ter
mile and up. Bradshaw, a dis-tance
man, and Swanson, a hurd-ler,
both look improved over last
year. Two other prospects that
have looked good are Fred Pur-cell
and Dale Pearson. Both prov-ed
their ability last fall in cross-country.
Thompson stated that the
boys should give a good account
of themselves, especially in their
own competition.
